After Action Report
The Magic survived the Rockets 116-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks; Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
